Challenge Mode Armor

One of the most exciting features of Mists of Pandaria, from a transmogrification perspective, is the addition of Challenge Mode armor sets, a brand new selection of outfits for the class-specific catalogue.

Similar to the Replicas released with Darkmoon Faire in Patch 4.3, Challenge Mode armor sets will consist of eight stat-less items, which players may use for transmogrification. Each class has its own visually unique Challenge Mode set, as depicted below. Take note of the highly detailed belt models, unlike any previously seen in-game.

The Challenge Mode items are presumed to be contained within a Golden Chest named according to the set it contains. For example, Golden Chest of the Betrayer contains the Warlock set, named ‘Betrayer’. A Golden Chest is awarded once the player has obtained the Challenge Conqueror: Gold achievement, by completing every Challenge Mode dungeon with a rating of Gold.

As the name implies, you should be in for a real challenge if you hope get your hands on one of these sets. Good luck!
